Nawa district cleared from Taliban

Ghazni Governor Muhammad Musa Akbarzada

NATO troops succeeded to clear the Nawa District of central Ghazni province from Taliban militants after four years struggle.   The international troops have launched the clearance operations in Nawa district many weeks ago.

Ghazni Governor Muhammad Musa Akbarzada said that the provincial Government will soon appoint the new district governor and security chief of Nawa district. The Governor added that Afghan security forces have not deployed in Nawa district yet.

Nawa district is one of few Afghan districts that had controlled by Taliban for four years.

Nawa district was being important for Taliban as it is located near Afghan border with Pakistan and local authorities considered Nawa as save heaven for Taliban.

NATO and Afghan security forces have recently fasten their military operations in areas that are under Taliban control.

Meanwhile, it is said that Ghazni city will be named as “central of Islamic Civilization”.

But despite of major development work and achievements in Ghazni, insecurity is till the main challenge for government and local residents.
